\starttable will always stay around (after all, it had been partially
mkiv'd); it's just that some of the other mechanisms have more features
and can/will be extended if needed
(not that much got deprecated; of course we got rid of encodings and
some more no-longer-relevant mechanisms in mkiv but functionality stays)

(1) ok, this year old school bibtex support is depricated (still around
as module) so we do change some defaults
(2) and the current beta has new columnset code which also depricates
some old obscure features in favor of new ones
